"You see, I don't believe that libraries should be drab places where people sit in silence, and that's been the main reason for our policy of employing wild animals as librarians."--Monty Python

STAFF PICKS -- Still Life

Cyndi's Pick:  Still Life, by Louise Penny

Synopsis:
As the early morning mist clears on Thanksgiving Sunday, the homes of Three Pines come to life—all except one…

Chief Inspector Armand Gamache of the Sûreté du Québec and his team of investigators are called in to the scene of a suspicious death in a rural village south of Montréal and yet a world away. Jane Neal, a long-time resident of Three Pines, has been found dead in the woods. The locals are certain it's a tragic hunting accident and nothing more but Gamache smells something foul this holiday season…and is soon certain that Jane died at the hands of someone much more sinister than a careless bowhunter. …

Cyndi says:  This great mystery takes place in 3 Pines--a small village near Montreal.  First in the Inspector Gamache series.  Makes you want to visit 3 Pines, go to the Bistro, sit by the fire, observe all the wonderful townspeople, and maybe help solve a murder.
